O design de uma matrícula em Visual Law como meio de otimização do acesso à extrajudicialização no Registro de Imóveis.

Abstract

Structural changes in the way legal content is organized when recording real estate acts can make them more accessible, contributing to the improvement of the communication process and to a greater understanding of documents originating from registry services. In this context, the present master's dissertation focuses on the registration entry in the Property Registry. Specifically, the research concentrates on analyzing and improving the current standard model of registrations by utilizing the methodologies of Legal Design and Visual Law, with the aim of making them more accessible and comprehensible to users. Accordingly, the following research question is posed: "Aiming to improve users' understanding of the content of registrations in the Property Registry, how can the standard model be enhanced through the application of Legal Design and Visual Law methodologies?" The general objective of this work is to outline the application of Design Thinking and Legal Design methodologies to the registration entry in the Property Registry, employing the Visual Law tool. The goal is to develop a prototype that promotes greater accessibility and understanding of the content of registration documents, improving information transmission, and enhancing communication. The specific objectives are as follows: to explore the Property Registry system, its services, and functionality; to define Design Thinking, Legal Design, and Visual Law and to understand its relevance in the Property Registry system through the use of simpler language; to identify the benefits of using Legal Design and Visual Law in the extrajudicial system. Methodologically, the research adopts a mixed methods approach and is of descriptive nature. Initially, it involves conducting documentary research through the analysis of relevant legislation and documents used in the Property Registry, with a special focus on registrations. This is followed by a literature review to cross-reference data and support the study's interpretation. Additionally, the research incorporates an empirical approach through the development and evaluation of prototypes, observing their evolution based on empirically collected data. The results confirm the hypothesis, as the methodologies of Legal Design and Visual Law lead to a symbiosis between technology and law aimed at making extrajudicial services more focused on the substantial accessibility of the user, specifically, in this study, in the property registration services. Future studies are necessary, considering the advancement of innovation in the field of Property Registration, especially in the context of the digital folio, in which the use of the methodologies studied could contribute substantially.
